[QUOTE="Billy Nolan, post: 260878, member: 1037"] I agree with you that the biggest youth magazine BRAVO, which I read a lot as a teenager, did not advertise Knots Landing as a series in itself. But the editors reported on some of the actors. Especially about Alec Baldwin and they referred to his role in Knots Landing. There were also reports about Lisa Hartman, Nicollette Sheridan and, at the beginning of the broadcast, James Houghton. In addition to the big teen stars (musicians, singers, movie actors, ...) the reports weren't big, but the series wasn't completely ignored (not even in the TV program part). In the first months of 1988, readers also voted Knots Landing into the "Tele-Renner" of BRAVO (you remember "Tele-Renner"?). I still have the articles about it. Still, you're right that the other soaps (especially Falcon Crest) were pushed more by the youth magazine BRAVO. But they reported primarily about individual actors. Almost exclusively about Lorenzo Lamas and his bare chest: Shirtless at the pool, shirtless while working, shirtless while working out, shirtles everytime... LOL This is probably due to the fact that Falcon Crest was already running in this country in the mid-80s; Knots Landing, unfortunately, much later - and the soap opera format as a whole was on the decline.
